	German Romanticism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Indeed, as a whole, the Romantic movement reached its greatest level of achievement in Germany.
		Perhaps the very first of Romantic musicians, if we exclude Beethoven, in the sense that Weber was the first major composer to emerge as a wholesome product of the Romantic school, as contrasted with Beethoven, who had started off as a Classicist (see below).
		One of the main figures in the so-called War of the Romantics.

	Fletcher, G.P.: Romantics at War: Glory and Guilt in the Age of Terrorism.
		Fletcher, G.P.: Romantics at War: Glory and Guilt in the Age of Terrorism.
		He argues that those sympathetic to war are heirs to the ideals of Byron, Fichte, and other Romantics in their belief that nations--not just individuals--must uphold honor and be held accountable for crimes.
		But as he traces the implications of the Romantic mindset for debates about war crimes, treason, military tribunals, and genocide, he also shows that losing oneself in a grand cause can all too easily lead to moral catastrophe.

	LENIN'S TOMB: Cynicism and innocence: on the pro-war Left. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		In fact, those who opposed the war have been accused of all sorts of ill motives, wrongdoing and stupidity.
		And now that the war is over, and the outcome has indeed proven disastrous, the pro-war Left would prefer it if we moved on, stopped living in the past and supported "Iraqi democrats" in Iraq now (not the ones who oppose the occupation, for obvious reasons), even if they themselves have not quite "moved on".
		My suggestion, therefore, is that the more sophisticated pro-war Left know full well what kind of ruthless bastards they have been placing their money on, and are even cognisant of the scale with which they can deal in death just in the course of ordinary business.

	Jean-Luc Nancy [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Nancy is thinking largely of the period of the German romantics, of Jean-Jacques Rousseau who left us a mythical natural community as a counterpoint to modern society, but the target of his analysis is also of contemporary communitarianisms, like Alasdair MacIntyre, who speak of the need for a return to pre-modern communities.
		The Balkan wars of the nineties, which erupted one by one, are a sad example of that.
		There is no longer a declaration of war from one sovereign to another, but an application of international law in the name of humanity in general.

	Yale Law Journal \| W. Michael, Romanticizing Guilt
		The threat of terrorism has forced Americans to consider questions of war and guilt with a new sense of immediacy and relevance, to disorienting effect.
		The aim of this Comment is to extend and modify Fletcher’s account of the conflict between liberals and Romantics by examining an aspect of the Romantic tradition that he ignores.
		At the same time, it argues that Fletcher’s approach to the question of war’s appeal and his argument for the principle of collective guilt are inconsistent with his own premises.

	FindLaw's Writ - Herrington: A Review of George Fletcher's "Romantics at War"
		His latest book, Romantics at War, sets out to "bring some clarity" to concepts such as war, justice, terrorism, and self-defense.
		A large chunk of Romantics at War is devoted to the interesting question of how the law of war fits with our contemporary world of undeclared wars, terrorism, and rogue states.
		There, as Fletcher explains, the "Romantic" (read: nationalistic) ideas of collective action and responsibility were swamped in the rising tide of what he terms "liberal" or Enlightenment conceptions of free will and individual responsibility.

		According to Lord Garnet Wolseley, war "as an art was not studied, and hence, when the Crimean War broke out, so ignorant were our generals and our colonels, it is a marvel to me that any of us survived.
		Tennyson was not naive in his praise of war and glory, the way some Civil War romantics were whom Twain subjected to withering criticism.
		Tennyson acknowledged the generals' blunders, and was not only aware of the critics of his war poetry but even included one in his verse — though her objections are clearly marginalized as feminine, if not feminist.

		In contrast to the Mitscherlichs, Sebald is thus very much a man of his times, free of the older orthodoxies of the West German memory wars.
		For decades, the politics of memory in West Germany was divided between those who feared “too much” memory and those, like Jung and the Mitscherlichs, who believed Germans needed to work through their (collective) guilt if they were to overcome the symptoms of repression.

		The rise of Christianity, and its emphasis on "original sin" and the inherent sinfulness of man, facillitates a shift from a shame to a guilt culture.
		A prime character representing a guilt culture is Satan himself who laments that he carries a "hell within [him]self." The traditional epic battle has moved from actual war to a war within.
		The Romantics, by exploring the dark regions of the psyche, also placed an emphasis on inner struggle and the inherent value of individuals (as Wordsworth's Prelude intends to show).

	War of the Genders
		But most now agree that the causes and personality profiles of rape and rapists are numerous and varied, a good portion of them involving a neurotic need for power or control.
		But this definition primarily grew out of the feminist war against the patriarchy which made rape into a gender crime against women instead of a violent act by a criminal.
		A 'rape culture' was created in which women as a gender were being raped (controlled) by all men, and rape was the filter through which any average man viewed a woman.

	TAC 35: Not walking, but thinking
		The point of climbing in Scotland is to succeed on routes in a high mountain setting; this is especially true in winter, when even walkers concede to some of the climber's poncy gear.
		A distinction has to be made between the undernourished prepubescent waifs with haircuts out of Point Break who start indoors and graduate to roadside crags, and those heretical pre-war hard-men, romantics, nutters, artisans, and visionaries, whose climbing included mountaineering and hard Alpinism.
		Early Scottish climbing consistently involved breathtaking feats of bravery whilst vying with morbidly inadequate clothing and technical protection.
